How will these resources help you?
The United Nations, in their 2019 Population Prospects analysis, project a global population of 11 billion by 2100 – an increase of 3 billion over the next 78 years. While these figures are being challenged, one thing is for sure; this will bring significant challenges to the way we live. Without major adjustments towards more sustainable living and away from consumer culture, we threaten the planet’s ability to provide for this many people. These resources explain these threats, but also how perhaps things may not be as catastrophic as they seem. How we source food requires a technological revolution in the agricultural sector. From these resources, teachers and students will be able to weigh up the debates, as there are very few (if any) topics studied in Geography that are not affected by population increase.
